nice artstyle for that neat platformer, well done!

You have a README which is great, but you'll need a License file as well (these are two main criteria for open source category). I love that your README is comprehensive, if you add some screenshots that'll spice it up even more.

Wow, this was just so fast I couldn't get the handle on the controls. Sometimes it would just randomly work... and others, not so good. Love the sound effects, love the music. The art-style fits and is great for your chosen game theme (platformer). Nice work on the fitting in with the balance theme.

Nice little platformer. The glass breaking effect looked cool.

Submitted

Cool game, seems like it's running a little faster than it should, might be an issue with my monitor having a higher refresh rate. Very hard but still fun

Developer

Yeah. The speed is coupled to framerate and I forgot to put a cap on that. Thanks for reporting.

Submitted

I don't know if it is just me, but for me the player goes insanely too fast, to the point of being close to uncontrollable, or maybe I am just bad lol.
Anyways the rope swinging mechanic is a very cool idea in a platformer :D

Developer(+1)

There is a bug in the game where faster machines will have faster gameplay. Just figured that out. Sorry it made the expierence frustrating for you.

Submitted

Oh I see, then that's definitely the issue, unfortunate :(

Submitted

Nice work here.

If there’s one low-hanging fruit you might change: The whoosh sound effect when jumping, it seems to have a long lead time. Like, you press Jump and it starts 100 or 200 ms later.

Developer

Thanks for the valueable feedback. Appreciate it.

Submitted

This game was a lot of fun! Well done.

Developer

Thank you. Glad you liked it.

Submitted

I won !!!

It was really nice to play it through. Good job.

There is just a few bug to fixe

Developer(+1)

Thanks for taking the time to play my game, you are indeed a winner.

I enjoyed the game, good job! I do think that a few tweaks are needed (gameplay is a tiny bit too fast, and the rope is a bit buggy) but very well made for 13 days. I would love to see it completed and polished because I think it has great potential! 🥰


Developer(+1)

Lol. That sure is a weird screen if taken out of context. To be honest, Im not entirely happy with the swinging mechanic as it is implemented now. Thanks for the feedback.

Submitted

For 13 days what you achieved is very impressive! 🥰
I look forward to seeing more games made by you <3 

Submitted

fun game, the levels are nicely planned and different mechanics work well together,
in therms of potential bugs, I noticed that I could go up or down the rope when holding W or S

Developer

That shouldnt happen. I was thinking about adding rope climbing as a feature. But decided against it as it would slow down the pace.

Submitted

Great game ! Had very much fun . The batman just stares into my soul

Developer

Thanks. Glad to hear you enjoyed it and yes: The batman sees all. Beware.

Submitted

super sick game, definitely very challenging. loved playing it though!!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for sticking through it!

Submitted

Cool little game, I think that adding a key buffer would do wonders, as well as some coyote time. good job!

Developer

Thanks for the usefull feedback. Ill definitly look into implementing a jump buffer.

Submitted

I like the fast pace, but the hitboxes are punishing, i think this could really benefit from some coyote-time ;)

Developer

Thanks. Its a highly requested feature, Ill definitly make those platform edges more forgiving.

Submitted

Solid, fast-paced platformer. I like the facial expression of the character.

Developer

thank you. Glad you liked it.

Submitted

The only thing I felt was missing here was a bit of coyote time, or if it was included, maybe extending it just slightly would help. Other than that, I had a great time with this platformer, especially launching myself across the level!

Developer

This being my first platformer, I actually never heard of coyote time before. But this is what jams are all about. Thank you for taking the time and leaving your feedback.

Controls need a bit more polishing since it's fast paced game, but feels great to play with speed already, great potential.

Developer

Sorry you had trouble with the controls. Great to hear you still enjoyed!

Submitted

The character movement seemed a little bit off.  Fun to go trough a few levels at super speed!

Developer

Yeah, the physics make it harder to switch direction once you pick up speed. That could make it feel unresponsive.

Submitted

was quite challenging was struggling with how fast i went but once i got the hang of it going slow then speeding up i was able to make progress , love the batman face on the player , and i think we might have the same sound track in our games lol would love if you could go check out my game, Load it up!
